 == History ==
+[[Max Spade]] and the other spectral revelers ended up here after the end of the quest [[Bored to Death]]. Max's brother, [[Sam Spade]], tried to stop him by asking the [[Hero of Brightwall|Hero]] to help. Using the power of the [[Normanomicon]], Max sent large numbers of [[ghost]]s and [[Hollow Man|hollow men]] to kill the Hero. After a chase, Sam asks his brother to stop, but his brother convinces him to disobey his mother and Sam helps to try and kill you. [[Elizabeth Spade]] (their mother) appears and takes the brothers back to their graves after you take the Normanomicon away from them.
-As a young boy, Maze's parents were killed by [[Balverines]], but Maze was saved from certain death by [[Jack of Blades]] and two [[Heroes]] (Jack killed the Balverines that were about to kill Maze, and then proceeded to slaughter the Heroes in a show of strength). Maze felt he was forever in debt, and was never able to escape from Jack's shadow.
-Many years later, [[Jack of Blades]] had Maze lead bandits in the raid on [[Oakvale]], in search of [[Scarlet Robe]] and her children. After the raid he stayed behind and witnessed a bandit attempt to kill a young boy, who would grow up to be [[Hero of Oakvale]]. Realizing who the boy was and sensing his potential, Maze was stricken by his conscience and a wild hope that the boy might one day be able to defeat Jack, freeing Maze from his slavery. With this hope in mind, Maze killed his own bandit and took the boy to the Heroes' Guild to be trained as an [[apprentice]]. Though the Guildmaster became a more visible figure in the child's life, Maze watched him from a distance.
-As the years passed, however, his hope faded and fear brought him back to Jack. He then became a father figure to the Hero and helped to guide him in his search for his missing family, all the while using the Hero for his own gain. He also requested the Hero to find a "friend" of his, the [[Archaeologist]], only to use the information to track him down for Jack. Eventually, Jack captured [[Theresa]] and brought her to the Abbey in [[Hook Coast]], where Maze began a complicated ritual on Jack's behalf to summon the [[Septimal Key]]. The Hero soon appeared, searching for Jack. As Maze attempted to trick the Hero to believe Theresa was a danger, [[Jack of Blades]] himself appeared from behind and bound the Hero in a magical cage. Maze completed the ritual and was ordered to take them to the [[Chamber of Fate]], but after Jack left, Theresa used her last ounce of Will to free the Hero before Maze magically transported her away.
-[[File:2010-05-06_03.42.29.jpg|thumb|220px]]Then, in an epic battle, the Hero fought Maze through town and across to the lighthouse, where he finally killed him. With his dying breath, Maze revealed that it was his fear of death, which he considered his mission to avoid, that motivated him to aid Jack of Blades. Maze bitterly admitted that he failed in his mission, and reveals that his doubts may have been wrong and that the Hero may actually be strong enough to defeat Jack. Jack later says that, as he had outlived his usefulness, Maze would have died anyway.
-== Powers and abilities ==
-Maze was an extremely powerful [[Will]] user who had many abilities. These included all the average Will powers to their highest degree and many of his own. He was able to raise magical barriers that were so powerful, it required the might of The Guildmaster and an ancient [[Old Kingdom]] [[Arban's Thaumaturgica|book]] to bring them down. All in all he was one of the most powerful beings of his time, surpassed only by Jack of Blades and the Hero of Oakvale (and perhaps Scythe [especially if Scythe truly is William Black]), and possibly The Guildmaster, though his Powers are unknown but are implied to be very great.
-He has all the Will abilities the Hero can obtain, also including the Hobbe Shadow Bolt. His Will Abilities are obviously overpowered beyond that of which the hero can obtain, an example being his Enflame. It had a huge area of effect and he could even use it while moving or jumping. The only abilities he is not shown using are Slow Time, Summon Creature and Ghost Sword.
-== Trivia ==
-*Maze was the most powerful Will user of his time and was unrivaled in any form of magical combat.
-*Maze studied the Old Kingdom and mastered its ancient powers.
-*In ''[[Fable: The Lost Chapters]]'', it is revealed that Maze attempted to find [[Avo's Tear]], a sword that rivaled the [[Sword of Aeons]] in power, to fight Jack, but he was deemed unworthy to wield it. The Hero can obtain it if he destroys The Sword of Aeons instead of killing his sister.
-*In his youth he was supposedly one of many, along with [[Weaver]], who revolted against the leadership of the Guild.
